aka 'mini me' on 'The Surreal Life'
Published on January 11, 2005 By dharmagrl In Misc

I dunno if any of you have managed to see the premier of the latest 'Surreal Life' series on VH1.....but if you're easily disturbed, I wouldn't recommend that you do.

Those of you with a slightly warped sense of humor might get a pretty big laugh out of it.

You see, Vern Troyer of 'Mini Me' fame is in it.  In the first episode (which I caught on Sunday but had to watch again tonight because it was so....disturbing but funny at the same time) he gets drunk.  I mean rolling, falling, shit-faced, dunno where I am drunk.  One of his compadres (The actor who played Peter on the Brady Bunch, of all people) has to pick him up and carry him back into the house and put him to bed, where he semi-passes out and starts making thrusting motions with his hips and orgasmic moaning sounds.... only half an hour later Vern's up and rolling on the scooter the show provided for him....and he's butt-ass nekked. 

Not only is he drunk and butt-ass nekked, he's urinating in the corner of the hallway, having (in his drunken stupor) mistaken it for the rest-room.

What else can I say?  What else is there TO say?  I don't think I can top that....I don't think there's anything else I can add that would accurately describe the scene.

You're just going to have to see it for yourselves to understand....

That, well I guess thanks are in order. Thanks for bringing this show to my attention so I can make sure to avoid it, it sounds way too scary for me

Ugh, yeah, i watched it. As if what you mention wasn't enough, how about how he acted eating sushi off the model chic? I wasn't disturbed nearly as much about the drunken behavior as I was his complete inability to deal with being in close proximity to a nekkid model. I mean jeez, his movies have grossed 1 billion dollars, hot nekkid babes aren't familiar to him? What the hell is celebrity for?

This is gonna be hellish, I think. Not a feel-good group of peeps, even with a brady in charge.

Yeah, I've been to a few like that too...but its somehow easier to deal with full-sized streakers...

It's way up there on the cringeworthy scale, that's for sure.  This is worse than Brigitte Nielsen and Flavor Flav making out all over the place.

No problem...like I said, you have to have a strong constitution to watch this stuff/

OMG, wasn't that just....nauseatingly disturbing?  I honestly thought he was going to feeling himself up right there at the dinner table!  Yukky.  Very yukky....made my skin crawl just watching it.

as I read the title, I began wondering if this was an article about me

but wow

I've never even heard of this show, it sounds crazy.

I think if I ever want to watch it, I'll just give myself and enema or something instead. hehe

cheers

Are you on the dhort side, Myrr?  I always pictured you as being tall....

That'd be more fun that watching a shit-faced stark naked mini me take a leak off the side of his scooter. I tell ya, it was very disturbing.  He's really very creepy.......

I too watched the first episode of the Surreal Life and was thoroughly grateful for seeing it. The Whole Vern fiasco practically made me pee in my pants. It made me think deeply into why I found it so funny... and I have come up with many reasons... One of them was how completely uncomfortable I was while watching it.. that made it very funny... I felt sorry for him... but still found it funny ... maybe because he is a celebrity who was picked up and cradled like an infant by a BRADY! And yet another reason... one that took me a bit of time to be able to acknowledge outloud.. He is freaky to look at... I love all of nature's children... but lets admit it... He's a 2 foot pervert... that's freaky.... so seeing him on the surreal life drinking like he's 6'4" THAT's FUNNY...

OMG...a reality show, I forgot to watch! Thank you, dharma, for bringing me back to my senses. I must catch up this weekend. They always run all the current episodes of Surreal Life on the weekends.

I can't wait to see this one.

Obviously, I have the warped sense of humor.

Rescued by a Brady! Now that is funny. Damn, I wish I got VH1 now. Oh well, will have to wait for the repeats in six months I guess. But thanks for the heads up, Dharma. I will be watching out for this for sure. I love to see minor celebrities make absolute twats of themselves.

Cheers,

I do too...I was rolling with laughter....

I love to see minor celebrities make absolute twats of themselves.

Oh, there's plenty of that on this show, especially the first episode.  It's chock-full of twat-ish behaviour.
